Hello,
Before I start, I'd like to put a disclaimer about my knowledge of PCs, I'm basically more of a software guy than a hardware guy. Recently, I ran a UserBenchmark on my PC, and although I was told from another site that UserBenchmark was usually used for overclockers. However, I still believe that my performance still isn't up to par. In games like GTAV, especially the online mode, I get stutters the most during driving and after an extended play session (above ~30min). This leads to me believing that this could be, in fact, true about my computer. I would believe, at first, this to be my RAM, as it could be a page filing issue claimed on a thread on NVidia's site, but I want to absolutely make sure. Other problems could be the GPU and HDD.
The UserBenchmark is as follows:
UserBenchmarks: Game 64%, Desk 57%, Work 35%
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K - 81%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 970 - 76.9%
HDD: Toshiba DT01ACA100 1TB - 35.9%
RAM: Unknown DDR3 2133 2OZ 2x4GB - 58.2%
MBD: Asrock Z97 Pro4
Bonus Question : In upgrading RAM, what exactly has to be compatible across all parts for best performance?
